Eminent luminaries from the diplomatic and corporate spheres like
Sir Michael Arthur- the British High Commissioner in India, Tata
Consultancy Services Ltd CEO and MD S Ramadorai, Wockhardt Ltd chairman
Habil Khorakiwala, BSR & Co. partner and head of tax and regulatory
practice Sudhir Kapadia and Picton Howell Solicitors, UK solicitor
Dina Dattani discussed the opportunities awaiting Indian companies
in the UK.
The discussion on Go Global? Think UK presented the
benefits of investing in the UK. The UK presents prospective investors
with one of the lowest tax rates in Europe, deregulated economy
and world class research and development facilities.
Speaking at the forum, Ramadorai said, "A company needs to
be fundamentally strong if it needs to establish itself in another
country. In UK, ease of business is possible, rules of the games
are clearer. The opportunities in UK are phenomenal, UK welcomes
any kind of competition. For a company to acquire another in UK,
what is most important is that the two companies need to be synergistic,
with the aim of providing value to the customer in the end!"
Commenting on the initiative with UK Trade & Investment, CNBC-TV18
spokesperson said, "India Inc is growing by leaps and bounds
and is constantly on the look out for fresher investment avenues.
CNBC-TV18 in association with the UK Trade & Investment endeavors
to assist the growing Indian Economy to encash the opportunities
offered to both entrepreneurs and established companies in the United
Kingdom through this free flowing forum."
